Got it wrong yesterday. That was day 206, yes, but not 6/26/26. That’s today, duh. Oh well. Walked with Joanne up to PAMF where she had a brief appointment, then did a little shopping at Trader Joe’s. In the waiting room at PAMF: another CH resident, hi Carol! And then after coffee, at TJ’s: another CH resident, hi Sandy! Us old folks are all over the town.
After lunch I actually sat in front of my desktop machine and coded some Python. I finally found a good, step by step tutorial for writing an AI “agent”. Which is simply a script (program) that invokes an AI via its API (programming interface) and does something with the output. Well, that’s the start of it. I wrote some code, following directions, debugged, it tested it, and Claude Haiku responded to my program’s call. I will pursue this further but my goodness that felt good.
Joanne texted, “going to Costco, want to come along” and sure, why not. So we did a little shopping. I have to admire the Costco method of marketing. They just stack the aisles with these little mountains of stuff which just beg you to reach out and take one. Maybe two. Stick it in your cart, why not. It’ll be handy some day…
After supper, the twice-monthly SongAlong (so called because of a typo made in a poster once). Jerry and Kaye do a great job organizing these.
